With eyes unblinking and body crouched low the the earth, his chin resting on snow-dusted paws, Sparkkit makes his presence known in WindClan's camp. Or, rather...he tries to make it unknown, with how small he has forced himself to be. The child has quickly grown into a somewhat lanky figure, with legs that do not entirely suit his size. Long, slender, and somewhat ungainly. He has to tuck them awkwardly beneath him where he crouches. He's watching. A patrol has just recently returned to camp, and with them: his hero. Sootpaw. Of the many apprentices in WindClan, who better to admire than the leader's son? He was confident, and clearly skilled. He was everything that Spark wanted to be one day. And everything that many others seemed wary of, in some strange way.
Curiosity wants to tug him closer, but still the kitten keeps his distance. Their conversation is drawing near, enough so that he begins to hear talk of what had happened. Could he ask them about it? Could they teach him something? He knows that his own apprenticeship grows closer, but he wants so badly for it to be now. Maybe they could take him out of camp. If Sootstar let them. If he asked really nicely, would she? Eager and antsy, Sparkkit's paws knead into the ground like a hunter in a perpetual pounce, but he can't quite make himself spring forward. Soon? Soon.
